Lyrics
I let myself down
I experienced self-disappointment.
Cause it's easier
Choosing the easier path.
Than being so bright
Preferable to avoid standing out.
But you make it alright
Your presence makes things okay.
Thankfully I found a vice
Grateful for finding a harmless comfort.
That won’t destroy me
A comforting habit that won't harm me.
A reason to smile
Discovering a reason to be happy.
A green light shining miles
A positive sign or opportunity.
I hate that I hate myself
Expressing self-loathing.
I let myself drown
Alluding to self-destructive tendencies.
Cause it’s easier
Opting for an easier path again.
Than constantly fighting
Choosing not to constantly struggle.
For a welcomed inviting
Desiring a warm welcome.
Into your chest
Seeking comfort in your embrace.
But
Transition to a contrasting thought.
Thankfully I found a vice
Finding a non-destructive solace.
That won’t destroy me
A positive source of comfort.
A reason to smile
Discovering reasons to be happy.
A green light shining miles
A metaphorical green light, a positive signal.
I hate that I hate myself
Reiterating self-hatred.
Even if you love me
Even if you express love towards me.
Even if you love me
Repetition of the previous line.
Love me till death
Love me deeply, enduringly.
My heart beats through my chest
Intense emotions, heart pounding.
Steal all my breath
Losing breath due to overwhelming feelings.
I swear it’s not a theft
Assuring it's not a deceitful act.
Love me till death
Reiteration of desiring profound love.
My heart beats through my chest
Emphasizing the intensity of emotions.
Steal all my breath
Experiencing breathlessness in love.
I swear it’s not a theft
Reassuring the sincerity of emotions.
Thankfully I found a vice
Reaffirming a positive coping mechanism.
That won’t destroy me
Ensuring the chosen vice won't harm.
A reason to smile
Finding more reasons to be happy.
A green light shining miles
A positive metaphorical signal.
I hate that I hate myself
Repeated expression of self-hatred.
Even if you love me
Reiteration of the challenges in self-love.
Even if you love me
Continued expression of the complexities in receiving love.
